Our leadership embraces our responsibility to pursue academic excellence within a welcoming environment where every student can thrive. More than 150 years after our founding, we continue to be a place where students can grow and flourish in their professional or academic careers.

The department also has an active PhD program in finance with a strong and consistent placement record.

A Supportive Environment
